[QUOTE="Creedmoor shooter, post: 1703621, member: 72601"] Pass throughs definitely dont hurt.... but not really needed either if you put the bullet where it belongs. The bear I shot with the 140 a-max at 2685 fps was a boar that dressed at 312lbs. No exit and he went less than 20 yards from where I shot him. On the other hand, I saw a bear shot at 10 ft straight down through the back with a 7mm rem mag and a 140 nosler BT and that bear went 300 yards on one lung. Lost blood at 150 because the hole in the bottom of the chest plugged with fat and hair. Tracked the rest by imprints in the leaves. So as long as your patient and wait for the shot you want you could shoot them with a 243 and they wont go anywhere. [/QUOTE]
